Sharable Clips on Instagram
Every week I do a video blog (or VLOG).
When I started this, I was very scared of putting myself on video, so I got the courage and put myself in the arena, killing a lot of bad self talk.This gives me the chance to work on my communication skills, start a new medium, and experiment!
Once a week, after I have thought about them, I will give them a day here on the blog.
These aren’t just promotion posts (although they are, please watch and share 
) I want to take the time to break them down and try to clarify what I want to communicate and the tactical things I learned through doing.
This week I talked about intentional scarcity.

What I Wanted To Communicate About Intentional Scarcity
When you take away things purposefully, you train your mind to get stronger. The stronger your mind, the more you get to do. Intentional scarcity is a great way to do that. It makes you tougher so the tough things don’t break you.
- Get used to less – We don’t use that much, and getting used to the idea that you have less and deal with less helps.
- We have limited focus – nothing is boundless, especially our focus. With less to focus on, you spend more focus on the things that matter.
- Improve your willpower – Seeing you can do it will improve your confidence that you can do other things. It levels up your willpower.
What I Learned Doing This Video
- Centering the shot looks better.
- I am going to need a LAV mic to pick up sound better.
- I need a preproduction checklist.

What I Wanted To Communicate About Questions
Questions are the backbone of gaining knowledge. There is a real art to being a better questioner and being better at answering them. There is an art to both, and this week I give a few tips into the world.
- Asking
- Do the homework – Asking is a privilege, show that you understand that by doing the work before showing up. Try to get well read, at least try to get enough in so you understand what is happening, and get to ask a relevant question.
- Know how to ask – Environment matters. Don’t embarrass people, and don’t turn meetings that serve a certain purpose into your personal pulpit.
- Drop the ego – This isn’t a chance to show how smart you are. It’s about the knowledge, nothing more nothing less.
- Receiving
- Take a breath – This allows you to hear, and as a bonus, stops you from trying to think around and about your answer.
- Body language matters – When someone asks you a question, they are not just trying to hear you, they are watching your every move. So, how you respond matters.
- Drop the ego – This isn’t the opportunity to berate someone.
- Bonus – Asking questions when you are leading leads to growth opportunities.
What I Learned Doing This Video
- Back straight – Body language matters. If I slump then I don’t feel as confident delivering the material.,
- My work on Um’s and Ah’s Matter
- I lost the first cut of this video because of space restraints. I need to understand my equipment better.

Life As Usual Video Blog #7 – Habits
Every week I do a video blog (of VLOG). This week I talked about habits.

What I Wanted To Communicate About Habits
I wanted to tie this weeks video with last weeks, so I made a video about habits, which has a strong tie to accountability.
I hit on three bullet points
- Habits – What they are and why it’s important to look at them.
- Ritual – The way you go about getting the habit done. The ritual is important because our bodies work in rhythm. Rituals give the bass line.
- Starting Small – No one ever started weight lifting 225, so why do we do that with habits? Starting small makes it easier to work.
What I Learned Doing This Video
- I look away a lot. I have to learn how to keep a straight face on the camera.
- Editing this one was easier, I am getting more comfortable.
- Instead of cutting one long tape, trying to do it in sequence I could do things in segments. They don’t have to have order either.
